Lipton leaves crossword clue
29 Down · WSJ Crossword, November 4, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Lipton leaves” is TEA. It appears as 29 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of November 4, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Zzz Top” by Shmuel Schmell, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 6, column 13 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with T and ends with A, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
